Topic: I am a cabbage (Read 1682 times)

I am the cabbage rolling amongst people. They can't see that I am the cabbage, but I see the other cabbages.Humans told me to think for myself. I said I will think for myself. Alas, cabbages lack originality. The best I can do is grab some glue and roll around in humans' ideas so that some might stick to me for a time. I am beautiful. I am colourful. Yet, under the first layer, there is only green, maybe even rotten leaves. That does not mean I want to be a cabbage. No! My only wish is to be a human. From there, I will surely be able to solve my problems. Heck, I won't even have problems.I go around flapping my leaves as if they were hands, I go flapping around my leaves mimicking lips saying ideas, telling thoughts, ideas stories, sharing emotions.Still, all I flap around, they are only leaves, and as leaves they will fall flat.I seek outside, I see the humans enjoying their dance with life.I seek inside, I see only the leaves.

Everybody complains about politicians. Everybody says they suck. Well, where do people think these politicians come from? They donít fall out of the sky. They donít pass through a membrane from another reality. They come from American parents and American families, American homes, American schools, American churches, American businesses and American universities, and they are elected by American citizens. This is the best we can do folks. This is what we have to offer. Itís what our system produces: Garbage in, garbage out. If you have selfish, ignorant citizens, youíre going to get selfish, ignorant leaders. St George Carlin

Yeah, to quote Ambrose Bierce 'Quotation, n: The act of repeating erroneously the words of another.'

however sometimes the problem is when you repeatedly accurately repeat a quotation
